Reuters broke the story and there hasn't been an official announcement as yet, but we do know that the launch of the partnership with be marked by the availability of episodes of MGM's decade-old "American Gladiators" program to YouTube.
There will also be an MGM channel where full length movies will be shown including "Bulletproof Monk" and "The Magnificent Seven" as well as clips from the likes of "Legally Blonde".
These will be free to watch, with ads running alongside the video.
